HIGH PRESSURE TURBINE STAGE 2 NOZZLE ASSEMBLY - INSPECTION | ||
* * * FOR ALL |
TASK 72-00-52-200-801 |
1 . | General. |
A. | This procedure gives instructions to do an inspection of the high pressure turbine (HPT) stage 2 nozzle assembly (stage 2 nozzle assembly) (34-010 , 72-00-02) (SIN 17400) or (34-011 , 72-00-02) (SIN 17400). Refer to Figure 801. |
B. | Any sub-assembly or part removed for access or limited workscope must be inspected in accordance with criteria in this section. If there is no criteria, the sub-assembly or part must receive a general visual inspection (GVI) for continued serviceability. Refer to TASK 72-00-00-200-805 (72-00-00, INSPECTION 001) . If required, the component can be hand-cleaned to do a visual inspection. Refer to TASK 70-21-01-110-001 (CLEANING METHOD 1 - SOLVENT DEGREASING) or TASK 70-21-03-160-001 (CLEANING METHOD 3 - STEAM CLEANING) . GVI can not be done to components identified in TASK 05-21-00-200-801 (05-21-00, LIFE LIMITS 001) that become piece part. These components must have their appropriate mandatory inspections done, unless stated differently in an applicable Service Bulletin. |
C. | If you do this procedure and find an unserviceable assembly or part, refer to the applicable section of the engine manual for more disassembly and inspection procedures for the assembly or part. |
D. | If you will fully disassemble the stage 2 nozzle assembly, this inspection is not necessary. Refer to the applicable section of the engine manual for the inspection procedure for each part. |
E. | The maintenance instructions in this Manual do not purport to cover all details or variations in equipment, nor do they provide for every possible contingency to be met in connection with installation, operation, maintenance, or GEAE certified repair facilities. The maintenance instructions are intended to be all-inclusive for a complete teardown and overhaul of the component or sub assembly. The individual procedures as written are one sequence based on General Electric experience. Alternate sequences to these maintenance instructions are at the discretion of the operator and/or overhaul shop provided the intent of the maintenance instructions is met. The operator and/or overhaul shop can select specific tasks to partially disassemble and assemble hardware or subassemblies based upon the on demand maintenance requirement of the individual engine work scope provided the final assembly configuration and requirements contained in the manual have been met. |
